About this deal

If you're thinking about having anal sex or engaging in any kind of anal play, your safety and comfort (and pleasure) should always be at the forefront of your mind. Unfortunately, when it comes to anal penetration, you can't just go in there without any preparation.

In general, it’s a good idea to stay away from parabens, which some studies suggest may be linked to breast cancer. This water-based lube is made without parabens for a more ~natural~ experience, and the simple pump top makes it *so* easy to dispense (though it also comes in a smaller, travel-friendly version). Plus, you don't have to worry about clean up, because this formula won't stain your stuff. And though this formula is relatively simple and non-allergenic, it does contain glycerin, so it's not a great choice for vulvas. All of the experts we spoke to discouraged the use of flavored or scented personal lubricants for anal, vaginal, and oral sex. What’s more, avoid glycerin in your lubes, as it contains sugar, and that can alter vaginal pH, SELF previously reported. Water-based lube is also the best lube for sensitive skin. According to Engle and Dr. Queen, you should also avoid petroleum-based lubricants, and anything with parabens or preservatives. Oh, and please don’t put Vaseline down there. If you use a lube with numbing agents that gives you “tingly” or desensitizing sensations for vaginal sex, Dr. Queen says to skip it for anal play. “Anal sex can be painful when it’s not done right, but you want to listen to those messages and respond accordingly,” she says. “Slow down, add lube, take a break, ask your partner to be more gentle, etc. You don’t want to ignore your body’s signals. If you’re numb, you won’t receive those signals clearly, which can put you at risk.”

The best anal lubes

And a dry condom breaks very easily… so a condom is only as effective as the extra lube you’ll add to it – just make sure you use a water-based lube as an oil-based lube could cause the condom to break. However, people should avoid using silicone-based lubricants with sex toys, as they may damage silicone products. Oil-based lubricants

As olive oil is an oil-based lube, it is not advisable to use it with latex condoms or other latex barrier contraception methods as it can cause them to break. If you do use an anal douche, the safest way is with an enema bulb filled with water, Dr. Thomas explains. “You can use a drugstore enema that you’ve emptied and rinsed out first,” he says. Fill the bulb with lukewarm water and lubricate the tip, Dr. Thomas says. Then sit on the toilet, insert the tip until it’s just inside your anus, and gently squeeze until you feel water inside your rectum. Dr. Thomas recommends holding the water inside you for 15 to 30 seconds before releasing it into the toilet. The water that comes out will probably be brown at first. Repeat the process a few times until the water runs clear. Planned Parenthood notes that after using an enema, you should wait one to two hours before anal sex to allow your butt time to recover from any irritation and to ensure that you’ve completely emptied the water. In anal play, once you get past your anus itself, anal sex takes place in your rectum, which isn’t a storage area for poop unless a bowel movement is imminent. That means the odds of you actually pooping on your partner mid-act are very, very low, Dr. Moritz says. If you’ve recently pooped and you don’t have any health issues that make pooping a bit less predictable, like ulcerative colitis, a ton of feces probably won’t sneak up on you mid-anal. This advice still stands if your partner ejaculates inside you. Though some people worry this could cause runny poops that resemble diarrhea, Dr. Frankhouse says this actually isn’t the case. For one thing, since poop usually isn’t in your rectum until you’re close to expelling it, there’s no real opportunity for poop and semen to mix. Even if poop could go farther up into your colon, semen is usually runny. Since your anus will likely remain expanded for a few minutes after anal sex, that semen can just leak right on out, Dr. Frankhouse says. If you want to go to the bathroom to expel that, feel free, but it’s not necessary! But maybe it's not quite that simple. If you're using condoms, you need to avoid oil. It can cause both latex and polyisoprene condoms to degrade, and fast: a condom that's going to fall to bits halfway through the act is not an effective condom. So that's one kind of lube eliminated from this category, at least.Let’s start by clearing one thing up: Unless you urgently feel like you have to use the bathroom, or you have health issues that affect your gastrointestinal system, you’re probably not going to spontaneously poop during sex. A finger, penis, or sex toy would go in your rectum during anal sex, and that part of your body isn’t where your poop lives. (It’s stored further up and out of reach in the sigmoid colon until a muscle contraction called a “mass movement” empties it into your rectum.)

Avoid petroleum products like Vaseline, and skip natural oil-based lubricants like coconut oil, too, if you're using a condom. One study, which looked at intercourse between males, suggests that those who use saliva as a lubricant could spread gonorrhea. An older study also highlights saliva in oral sex might cause vaginal yeast infections. Baby oilIt’s tempting to use something that takes away some of the discomfort you might have at the beginning of anal play, but it’s there to let you know that you have to change something—the angle or the amount of lube you’re using,' Wright adds. 'So taking that away can be really dangerous, because it’s much easier to tear the skin if you can’t feel what’s going on.' Ingredients to avoid when shopping for an anal lube Hekmatpou, D., et al.

Now, it might be tempting to use butter as an anal lube as it’s an oil, just like coconut butter, right?
